Answer:

In what has been referred to as the "first world-class gold rush, there was no easy way to get to California. At first, most argonauts as they were also known, traveled by sea. From the East Coast, a sailing voyage around the tip of South America would take five to eight months, and cover approximately 18,000 nautical miles (33,000 kilometres).

For that reason the California Gold Rush help to create a need for the pony express. According to the reading “in 1860 and 1861 the pony express was the fastest way to get news to and from the West. The trail that they rode was around 2000 miles long. It took most people weeks or months to ride that far. Those speed was unheard at that time. Every 75-100 miles, the rider would get to a home station and rest. Before resting, He would give his mail pouch to a new rider. The mail never stopped. The pony express filled an important role for a time, but it did not last because of the telegraph invention.
